Raise the Roof Weekend Recap

Hello and welcome to the first Monday of August, the year of our Lord, Two Thousand and Twenty Five.  When did we stop saying such medieval sayings?  I rather like sounding fancy pants.  Also, what exactly are fancy pants?   *Consults the ever reliable innerwebs* Merriam Webster literally says "overly elegant or refined : la-di-da"  It says la-di-da! 😆  Did you also know it's hyphenated?  Fancy-pants.  The first known use was in 1939.  Aaaand, still no one can tell me what said pants were so fancy back in the day that they were associated as being so elegant.  Oh when I go down a rabbit hole I'm bringing you with me, my friend! Anyhoo, so you know the show de la chit we were dealing with last week.  After the window dude spotted the caulking issue and patched it up, we were relieved.  The only thing the Mr wasn't looking forward to was having to admit to Atilla the Hun that it might've been our issue all along.  I kn...

Relaxing/working weekend recap

Happy Monday all!

As promised, we took Saturday to chill.  I didn't get a ton of sleep the night before so I was wiped out to start the day but once I got in the water I was good.  We usually seem to fry out there and the sun feels so much hotter regardless of the temps.  Thankfully we had a lot of clouds for the sun to hide behind and give us some shade.  I even took time to lay down and soak up some peace and quiet in my favorite spot.


We stopped at a deli and grabbed some subs, chips, and drinks and threw them in the collapsible cooler and strapped it to the Mr's board.


I must say it was quite a workout though because we were into a headwind so our core and upper body get a helluva workout!

It was nice to get away from our 3rd straight week of home projects.  I spent Thursday and Friday "dressing" our doors and found out that my project made our trim and doors look cruddy so I got to repaint doors and trim.  Lucky me!  But it looks amazing and that project will be coming soon.

But I couldn't take the whole weekend off because once I saw how good that project looked, I wanted to do it on many more spaces.  So I measured, we hit Home Depot and got my materials and got back to work.  I'm happy to report that next Tuesday our bathroom countertop will be installed and we're so excited because that'll mean we're totally done with the bathroom reno.  The Mr put up the new light last week and I got the perfect bulbs to go in them so it's not long now until we can put the stamp of approval on it.

Of course, I have a whole other project in mind but work stuff is gonna have to come before that.  I think.  Though I may end up not putting it off because y'all know my propensity for procrastination.  I ran it by the Mr yesterday and he laughed and said "I knew this was coming."  We'll see if it actually does.

What did you guys get into this weekend?

  1. That was a great day and I had a blast. Sure the paddling was tough at times but having the picnic was awesome and we still had some good relaxing moments in there too. Definitely crashed hard on the couch later on though. How is it Monday already?

  2. sounds like a spectacular weekend! I love the lake you were on. I saw a bunch of paddle boarders at the state park on Saturday because it was so nice out.

    Weekend was good with errands and some nice country drives. Did not sleep well last night but that's because I have a lot to do today and that always gets me hinky. lol It's going to be hot and humid all week...joy. pfft.
